I'm slowly starting up an atv/small engines repair/performance shop here where I'm at and am wanting an off the wall build to show my capabilities. I have a loncin 50cc quad (tiny slow yada yada yada haha) that I'm wanting to redo and show everyone what I'm capable of. I didn't start with anything bigger because I figured if I can make a 50cc fun and look good and people see that. It'd make more if an effect than a banshee that anyone could build. What I'm wondering is what all can I do performance wise to this quad? It's getting the frame cleaned and painted and maybe stretched depending on how far I get into it. It's also getting new coilovers all the way around and rewired completely. I figured I would pull and mill/home port and polish the head as well as do a basic rebuild and a custom exhaust and intake setup with a minuki carb. And new sprocket on the rear axle with new bigger tires. Any other suggestions on why I could do? Would an engine swap be something to think about? 2 stroke dirt bike engine maybe? Haha like I said off the wall.

Really? If you have to ask, maybe you're not as innovative and off the wall as you think you are. Dumping cash into a Chinese quad doesn't exactly inspire confidence in your potential customers. The reason shops build high dollar machines is because there's a market for them. I've never head anybody say "holy sh1t, is that a cool Loncin.
